Bakudan Handan takes place in an amusement park where there’s a bomb scare from a mascot character. While you’re solving the mystery, players will also meet charming men to fall for.

Just like Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk-2, Inafune makes a cameo as himself in this title too. He gives the protagonist advice as your uncle. In addition to guiding players, Inafune is producing the amusement park, which will have video game references.

You assaulted an amusement park mascot and I oughta put you away for years!

So a mascot is carrying a bomb in a theme park? I have a feeling Pedobear is the main villain here.

I think I mentioned this before in a Neptunia article, but I think it’s cool that Inafune is lending a helping hand to smaller developers like Idea Factory. I do wonder though when would we see a new game from his company. What I mean are games meant for game consoles or portables not just mobile games.

Hmm.

More importantly, why is he still called the creator of Mega Man? Lol.

I’ll be interested in this when we see the love interests though.
Kinda odd that he always makes cameos everywhere though. ouo;

dahuuuundge

These aren’t the type of games I expect Inafune to be involve in. Where’s the western appeal?

Maybe there’s a bald space marine somewhere and a fps segment…

I think Inafune is more interested in any developer who has a passion for and loves video games, instead of focusing only on the bottom line. This gives creative freedom, etc.

That is what western developers have shown more this generation than the usual folks from Japan, thus his shift to making both his own company and helping out smaller devs who are in the industry because they love it! Of course, any company needs to profit to survive, and getting Inafune’s involvement is a good way for smaller devs to get one more marketing angle.

Wait… Do you fall for the men, or do the men fall for you?

”Score yourself a hot stud!” should be added to the tittle of this game. ;)

Is that image up there supposed to be Inafune? Because… huh. That looks a great deal prettier than Inafune really is.

Still, nice to see he has work and is expanding his horizons. Gotta say I’m wondering what his contribution is going to be. Story writer? Game designer? Just a name they can attach to the project to drum up publicity?
